Phew! :slight_smile:

Used alot in Greek cuisine ?

Not really but my mum went through a phase when she was using it in everything until we told her off.

I don’t know why we told her off, probably because all our food was yellow and looked weird.

Yes, I had that done too but they somehow still don’t get hot enough. Maybe I just got a dud model. It was a well regarded Australian brand but of course they off-shored manufacturing.

It is very healthy and is suggested to help against dementia. Tell your mum you were wrong…

Don’t tell me what to do, you’re not my mum!

At least it’s phonetically correct. Hate when people say tyoomeric…

People are so weird.

My beloved Aldi meat probe thermometer has finally kicked the bucket. Any recommendations on what to buy as a replacement?
Fancy bluetooth ones seem tempting…

I would also like to know the answer to this.

I’m intrigued - how’s it connecting? Have you got an external gas tap?

Yes, it connects up to an external gas tap. So it is very convenient.

I saw some at Aldi this week :grin:

I’m watching our Aussie Asian chefs on channel 33. So good.

What are people’s best ordinary, non-special dishes?

I’ve got 3. One is a seafood risotto, one is a chicken risotto, and the third I think of as bubble and squeak although it’s not really bubble and squeak at all, basically leftover meat shredded with a whole lot of vegetables. All are 30-40 minute cooks at most, including preparation time, all are healthy and all are one-potters.

I made Nagi’s beef pot roast early in the week, which was not a huge success, but I pulled all the meat apart and I’ve been using it up about 200g of meat at a time (for me and Mrs S) with onion, red capsicum, diced carrot, potato, zucchini, chopped fresh tomato and some frozen peas tossed in at the end, with lots of olive oil and butter, all done in a large frypan covered for the last 5-7 minutes to combine all the flavours. Seasoned with salt and pepper and a shake of cayenne to give it a little kick. So easy and so good.

OMG! Will have to go investigate

I always have some time of pasta sauce in the freezer, so I use that for pizza, schnitzels, pasta, arancini balls, whatever really. Very handy habit to develop as it means you can always have something nice to eat.
